Jadeite Glass Cake Stand - 6"

$40.00

Quantity

Lovingly reissued by one of the last remaining glass manufacturers in the United States, we are proud to offer our lovely Jadeite Glass Cake Stands. Pressed from original, vintage moulds, these cake stands are made the old-fashioned way: while the glass is still molten, the plate and the stem are joined to form a single, sturdy piece. More difficult and costly to produce, they are far superior to the typical method of gluing the plate and stem together.

Handsome when used individually, they are even more dramatic when tiered. A perfectly simple cake stand in a beautifully fresh color.
6" Cake Stand Dimensions: Outside diameter of the plate is 6 3/8". Overall height is 5 3/8".

Learn More about Jadeite

Jadeite was manufactured in the United States by many glass companies from the 1930s to the early 1970s. Each company produced a slight variant either lighter or darker of Jadeite's classic seafoam-green jade color.

Jadeite was heavy, durable, inexpensive and, sometimes even free! It was often packaged as a giveaway in food and cleaning products. Many restaurants and diners served meals on Jadeite dishes, as they cost pennies to buy and were sturdy enough to hold up to commercial use.
